When you put it this way you imply that swapping the greedy for those who are not greedy would work.
Liberals analyse the world using idealism. Marxists analyse the world using materialism.
It will not work, because greed is not the cause, you're making the mistake of performing an idealist analysis instead of a materialist one. The idealist analysis lands you on "change how people think and things will get better" whereas a materialist analysis lands you on "change the system and it will change how people think".
The problem will never change without changing the system. No matter how hard you try.
